Mother’s Day, on Sunday, May 13th will be here before you know it. Consider this blog post your friendly reminder to plan ahead for this special day — why not create something special that your mother is sure not to forget!

How do you normally celebrate your beloved mom during this annual day of recognition? Maybe you cook her your favorite dinner and give her a present or two. Perhaps you take her out for brunch and treat her to an afternoon of shopping. Is it just a simple card and a phone call?

While there really is no wrong way to honor that special lady this and every other Mother’s Day, that doesn’t mean your annual tradition might not need a breath of fresh air. Here are a few creative ways to honor Mother’s Day this year with your incomparable mom.

Make Breakfast in Bed

Start a Craft Project

Go back to your childhood by introducing a fun and playful craft that you and your mom can tackle together this Mother’s Day. This could be anything from a quick collage together or a long-term project like quilting some of your old clothes together. If you are looking for a touch of maturity and sophistication to crafting, take a class together at a local studio. There are plenty of great painting classes around town for you and her to explore together. Usually it's quality time together that they're looking for.
